For those of you who know Phillip Island well (Cowes more the point), about fifteen years ago when Mini Europe used to be near the Cowes/Ryll Road roundabout, my dad, brother and I said "We should buy Mini Eurpoe and build a scaled down version of the GP track and we can run go karts and mini bikes there"......man, if only.........

Maybe for track days, I should consider renting out our beach house....... ;)
